I took my car to get oil sprayed, and there's some over spray on the windows. The rear window is the worst. I've cleaned the rear window twice, but still get some streaking. What can I use to clean the oil, that won't leave a film on the window?

Where in Ohio did you get it done? Since I want to have my car oiled.
Maybe some rubbing alcohol will take care of it.

Clean as well as possible with a window cleaner. When dry use some crumpled newspaper and rub vigorously.
That should do the trick.

How are you cleaning the window? I assume you're using glass cleaner.
If you have been using a paper towel use cotton cloth rag to to do your wiping. Like an old tshirt or like in all the cleaning infommercials a clean terry cloth towel.
It will pick up residue a lot better than paper.

Use a sponge (soft side) and some Dawn dish soap and water and scrub
Just give it a nice hand & bucket wash & it will be just fine. Had my truck oil sprayed.
WD-40

Stoner Invisible Glass and paper towels. I'll try an old t-shirt.

Eventually. I want the oil to soak in for a week or two before I wash it. I just want to clean the glass now.

Mineral Spirits works great. Then wipe dry and wash the glass with a good glass cleaner.
Try ww fluid

Window fluid is usually just alcohol (methanol)
Dawn detergent with a magic eraser and some Viva paper towels should do the trick.
